ENGLISH LESSONS FOR KOREAN SPEAKERS
I have been to South Korea many times. (A secret: South Korea is my favorite country in Asia!)
I understand how Korean culture works and I understand how the Korean language works.
For Korean speakers, a good English accent and pronunciation are easy to learn. The “big problem” (which is actually very small!) is difficulty with “R” and “L.” In my Conversational English Classes, we fix this problem permanently in less than five minutes!! I promise! In many, many years of giving English classes for Korean speakers, I have developed my own method for this. It always works!
The main problem in English for Korean speakers is the rhythm of the language. Did you know that every language has its own rhythm? It does! Getting a good rhythm and accent in English is not difficult. It is part of my Conversational English Classes (Adult English Classes, or ESL Classes for Adults).
In my Adult English Classes, you also learn English Presentation Skills. Presentation is very different in English and Korean. This is not only a language issue. It is also a cultural issue. My long experience visiting South Korea makes my ESL Classes for Adults special and unique.
HOW OUR ENGLISH LESSONS FOR KOREAN SPEAKERS WORK
Grammar and Vocabulary
Many people ask me, “What text book do you use?” Here is my answer: YOU are the textbook!
In my personal, custom-designed English Lessons for Korean Speakers, we start where you are in your English, wherever that is. As you speak, I listen to your grammar and find the difficult places.
Because I speak teach so many Korean students, I understand WHY you are making certain English grammar mistakes.
The vocabulary you need in English depends on the way you use your English. Do you speak English mostly at work (Business English Lessons)? Do you spend time with new English-speaking friends (English Conversation Lessons)? Do you need help with your writing (English Writing Lessons)? Do you give presentations or speeches (English Presentation Skills and English Speech Lessons)?
In my English Lessons for Korean Speakers, I make sure you have the vocabulary you need, and the grammar to use it properly.
Conversation and Comprehension
Maybe you have good English grammar and a good English vocabulary. The next question is: How is your Pronunciation (English Pronunciation Lessons)?
If you have a problem with the “R” and “L,” I have a personal technique to teach that in less than five minutes!
Is your English easy to understand? Do you say your words correctly? Is the rhythm natural sounding? The rhythm of English is very different from the rhythm of Korean.
These are all things you cannot learn from books. (A secret: it is obvious when Korean speakers learned their English from books or from foreign teachers! Their English does not sound natural!)
For excellent, natural English, you need a personal English teacher who is a native speaker. A personal American English teacher raises your English to the next level!
I promise you, it will be effective – and fun!
GREAT ENGLISH TIPS TO REMEMBER:
1) Be sure to speak slowly! Many students speak much too fast! It is difficult to understand you when you speak too fast. Also, you do not have time to think about your vocabulary and the fundamentals of English grammar. Slow down! Speaking is not a race! LOL!
2) Be sure to say every letter and every syllable. In my Adult English Classes, you will learn how to give the correct “weight” to each letter and each syllable in a word. This will make your English clear and beautiful.
3) Remember this: The best English is the most simple English! You will always sound good with simple, short sentences. The best English is the clearest English.
4) Your two ears are your best teachers! Listen to everyone around you. The world is full of teachers. If people use words or expressions you do not understand, write them down and bring them to your next Adult English Class.
5) Relax and enjoy your English. A conversation in English is not a competition. Everybody has a different style. You have your own style. You could call it the “flavor” of your native language. It can make your English unique and beautiful.
